Squeak, Squeak.What’s that noise? It’s not a mouse. It’s not a doggie chew toy. It’s my baby’s shoes. Everywhere I go, people love my daughter’s shoes and continue to staop and ask me about them. The are called Squeaky Shoes, and they are wildly popular in China. Many adoptive families fall in love with Squeaky Shoes while traveling in China and buy several pairs in various colors, sizes, and styles. I saved the pairs I bought for my older daughter, and added new ones to my baby’s collection.
Last spring at baptism, my daughter wore a white Chinese traditional silk top and skirt. She wore her purple flowered, Chinese silk squeaky shoes that make her giggle as she walks.
Most moms want to know where they can get Squeaky Shoes in the US. I recently discovered the site called Got Squeakers?
In case you are wondering, yes, you can remove the “squeak” mechanism temporarily. But, what’s the fun in that?

Just Google “Squeaky Shoes” and you’ll find many places to purchase. FYI, there are many Squeaky Shoes, different styles and different QUALITY. We purchased several pairs in China for our daughter, but not nearly enough. They are a lot of fun.

DeeDee, we didn’t buy near enough either. I wish we had purchased more. Good to hear from you!
Suzanne, I think they are similar, but may be an Americanized version? You can tell if they are Chinese by the tag on the inside and/or the Chinese sizing on the bottom of the shoe. I have no idea how to size them, other than hold them up to feet. Hee, hee!
